In 2023, as a 20-year-old, Walker felt the pressure. He showed signs but stumbled in his first year and the following two seasons. This year, the pressure is off, and Walker is on fire.

2. Andy Pages, Los Angeles Dodgers

Pages is following up on his 2025 campaign. His name may be overshadowed by others in the lineup, but Andy Pages produces at a high rate. He can be counted on for another big season, hitting in the league’s most potent lineup.

3. Oneil Cruz, Pittsburgh Pirates

Cruz is continuing his hot start. He’s gone back-to-back seasons with 20 home runs, 60 RBI, and 20 stolen bases. Entering the week, he has five home runs and is second in the Majors in stolen bases.

4. Chase DeLauter, Cleveland Guardians

The rookie continues to be the power source in Cleveland’s batting order. Entering the week, he’s second among MLB outfielders in home runs. Through three weeks, he has an OPS over 1.000.

5. Brandon Nimmo, Texas Rangers

Nimmo’s new scenery, in Texas, is just what the doctor ordered. He continues to get on base as well as drive in runs. He’s off to the best start of his career.

6. James Wood, Washington Nationals

Wood is off to a great start. He’s putting his power on display and is the cornerstone of Washington’s young team. He’s on pace to reach 30 home runs and 100 RBI for the first time in his young career.

7. Mickey Moniak, Colorado Rockies

It’s amazing what a chance of scenery can do for a player. Moniak struggled for consistency when he first came up in 2020. Last season, after being released, he found himself in Colorado and put together a great second half, and it has carried into this season.

8. Aaron Judge, New York Yankees

It’s only a matter of time before Judge catches fire. He’s coming around and always hits tons of home runs. He will be chasing a third consecutive AL MVP award.

9. Wilyer Abreu, Boston Red Sox

Abreu is underrated and entering his breakout season. Last season, he quietly hit 22 home runs and drove in 69 runs. He’s on pace to reach 30 home runs and be a leader in Boston’s offense.

10. Teoscar Hernandez, Los Angeles Dodgers

Teoscar has his “forever” home in Los Angeles. He’s produced in each of his first two seasons with the Dodgers. This season, he’s off to another hot start.
